<DIV><FONT size=2>I am finding it very interesting to see all the
chatter about my home town. I was born and grew up in Bradford and I
suppose that I should know about as much about the Kendall Refinery, AKA
Brad-Penn, as anyone in FOT. I grew up under the shadow of the
Refinery. I walked past the main gate and offices four times a day going
to grade school. (We had to go home for lunch!) My father-in-law
sold crude oil to the Kendall and his wells were among one of the tank farms,
(that is, a cluster of storage tanks). He also had, for many
years, the largest service station that the Kendall had in existence.
I had many friends that worked there, including my best buddy, who worked in the
Control Lab. I still have some connections that I can reach out to, and I have a
source of Brad-Penn oil, when I happen to be going there. I usually
go at least twice a year to Bradford. </FONT></DIV>
